HORROR BEGINS AT HOME.

Haunted prodigal playwright Sloane and their botanist husband Gwyn are due to settle the estate of Sloane's ailing grandmother. When Gwyn's childhood friend Beckham arrives to help the couple bury the hatchet, they soon discover there may be more to the dusty old house, and to Sloane's twisted past, hidden beneath the foundation.

A terrifying evening of harrowing trans horror, the haunted house transforms into tragicomic depravity.
